Summary
Mum always knows best....
The stunning debut for fans of Celia Imrie and Dawn French.
Meet the daughters of Iris Parker. Dee, sensitive and big-hearted; Rose, uptight and controlled; and Fleur, the reckless free spirit.
At the reading of their mother's will, the three estranged women are aghast to discover that their inheritance comes with very tricky strings attached. If they are to inherit her wealth, they must spend a series of weekends together over the course of a year and carry out their mother's bucket list.
But one year doesn't seem like nearly enough time for them to move past the decades-old layers of squabbles and misunderstandings. Can they grow up for once and see that Iris' bucket list was about so much more than money?

Feel good book
I initially thought the book was a bit slow and was going to be just another candidate for a chick flick. However I stick with it and was immensely pleased that I did. Some lovely twists and turns.

Overall plot predictable, stereotyped characters.
I found the story grated, largely because the characters involved where described in a totally stereotypical way.

I grew quite fond of 'the flower girls'...
This was an easy listen; a charming little story... Although I wasn't gripped by it at first, I grew quite fond of 'the flower girls' Dee, Rose and Fleur, and their lovable, slightly crazy, late mother Iris. Well worth a listen to - I enjoyed it all the way through.
